The Performance of Becoming Human by Daniel Borzutzky The Performance of Becoming Human by Daniel Borzutzky PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. 2016 National Book Award Finalist . Following in the path of his acclaimed collections THE BOOK OF INTERFERING BODIES (Nightboat, 2011) and IN THE MURMURS OF THE ROTTEN CARCASS ECONOMY (Nightboat, 2015), Daniel Borzutzky returns to confront the various ways nation-states and their bureaucracies absorb and destroy communities and economies.

To become human is to navigate borders, including the fuzzy borders of institutions, the economies of privatization, overdevelopment, and underdevelopment, under which humans endure state-sanctioned and systemic abuses

Retrieving History (Evangelical Ressourcement): Memory and Identity Formation in the Early Church by Stefana Dan Laing Retrieving History (Evangelical Ressourcement): Memory and Identity Formation in the Early Church by Stefana Dan Laing PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad This volume introduces the early Christian ideas of history and history writing and shows their value for developing Christian communities of the patristic era.
